The 2014 Games will be held from July 8 to July 12 in Vancouver. The Games take place once every four years and this is the first time the Games are in British Columbia in over 20 years.

For the first time, the Special Olympics Canada Summer Games will feature 11 sports, making the 2014 Games the largest Canadian Games ever. It is anticipated that over 2,000 athletes, coaches and officials will be part of the 2014 Games, in addition to over 1,000 Event volunteers, who will help to make this an outstanding and truly memorable experience for everyone involved.

The 2014 Games will be hosted at one of Canada’s preeminent post-secondary institutions – the University of British Columbia – and will also feature events at the University Golf Club in Vancouver and The Zone Bowling Centre in Richmond.
